    Thanks for the screenshots Pixcel!

    Is this behavior limited to your mobile, or does the same thing happen when you're using the web? 

    When was the last time you accessed your account?

      It's not limited to my smartphone but I tryed also on some pcs and it's the same error also with edge, Chrome...
      I think it's something with my DropBox account.

      I can access to my Dropbox account with this error:

      I don't know what does mean this error...
      I have also an application who send automatically each day some files into DropBox (linked with DropBox) but now the automatically process (linked to Dropbox) for this application doesn't works anymore. Each Day I must connect into DropBox manually and 2 month ago this was automatically connected.
      The application support asks me to check my DropBox connection and I saw this error after some tests connection in DropBox login webpage.
